“Hello, Count Granado!”
My father walked fast and bowed down in front of the Count . He pulled my arm and forced my head down .
“This time, the unfortunate accident of my eldest daughter Anastasia broke down the engagement between both families, and both your family and ours is extremely sad over the lose of Anastasia . But, here is my younger daughter, It’s up to you to decide if you want to accept her or not . “
The Count did not seem to be listening to my father . He was still stunned, looking at me .
“Mary … Are you Mary? Was Anastasia your sister?”
I nodded at the question .
“Yes, I’m Mary . ”
Count Granado gasps . He closes his eyes and stopped speaking .
Suddenly! He stared furiously at my father .
Awesome pressure! The mysterious green eyes were frighteningly sharp, as if they can pierce the heart with arrows . My father and I jumped . Woow! Scary!!!
Speaking of which, Anastasia had said … Count Granado was very harsh and feared by his servants .

“Milord . Your face is scary . ”
“is that… . so?”
“Mary is scared . ”
“Please don’t worry about me…” I said mastering my courage .

“Also, it seems outrageous, but Mr . Sharon is also suffering from all this . He’s a father who has just lost his important daughter, and he is desperate to protect his house . ”
“… Ummm…”
“And Thomas, the gatekeeper, didn’t do anything bad at all . He looks so scared after your reprimand . ”
“Uh …”

After being told by Mio, the Count became silent . Thinking for a long time, he look at us, and then turned back to face the gatekeeper .
“I’m sorry Thomas . You did right . ”
Then he turned back to us again .
“I showed you an unpleasant experience . Please relax in this castle tonight . ”
Mio said, “I’ll prepare the room right away . ”
As expected, my father forgot to mention that Anastasia’s room in the castle was the Count’s bedroom .
